i also read that they were considering a remake <eyeroll>. theres a video game out (i stopped playing video games after atari 2600 and nintendo 8 bit), if anyone is interested. its supposed to be okay. not great.

if anyone is really hard core into this film like me, id check out outpost 31.com. there is a section on the deleted scenes which i found quite interesting: http://www.outpost31.com/movie/deletedscenes.html

theres also a trip scheduled to go up and camp out in stewart, BC next august at the very same site where the movie was filmed.

Yeah A great fim prince of darkness-very sinister-the atmosphere of science and dark spirituality is quite disturbing when you have an innocence about you.
